Hi Kat Q, i found the info from the countdown to 10-1-10 PIR site. I will look again and get more info for you. the mom who is doing this is LaLa Ribbon queen and the ribbons are Navy with silver stars, I believe. I am so happy to be hearing from others moms. I believe we are brother divisions. Keep in touch. Got a second letter from my boy. He sound ok but didn't answer any of my mental questions. there is also a site that you can download questions for your sailor. I did and mailed it to him. Hopefully he can get enough energy to Circle the answers. got to go, family wanted breakfast. I should send them all to bootcamp.

sailorjay, I am doing okay. Sorry to hear about your son's finger. No stitches or anything? Hope not. DJ's second letter just sounded so heartbreaking, but I have to think positive as I hope he is. I really can't believe how quickly the time is going. Just 31 days left! As far as we know he is still on the 10-1 PIR. I hope we get to meet. That would just be awesome!! Have a great day and take care!! Hoping for a phone call or letter soon!! :)

Got a letter today. He sent one to me and one to his dad. He sounds so frustrated and wants to come home, but realizes he just can't do that. He doesn't think he can do it any more even though he was made a leader of his section which is pretty good from what I've heard. I wrote him back with some encouraging words telling him how proud we are and that this is his time to take care of him and not worry about us and his friends. Still no phone calls, but maybe we will get more letters next week. Sure do miss him!! 35 days left til PIR!!!!
